The main objective is to increase the quantitative aptitude of children through Abacus, Jodo Gyan, Fraction Kit and Solid Shapes. Maths lab helps to dissolve their fear of numbers and make the children quick in their calculations.
The primary section has a well-equipped library with around 3500 books. There are books on different subjects and topics. It covers the journey from comics to encyclopaedias. The children are subjected to different books and encouraged to read them. It also has a TV and a computer where students are shown short stories from time to time.
Since computer is the demand of the time, our children are exposed to computers right from class I. There is no examination in this subject for children of classes I and II. They visit the computer room only to familiarize themselves with the basic computer operations like keyboard handling, mouse handling etc. Theoretical knowledge is imparted class 3 onwards.
It caters to the educational adjustments, emotional and psychological needs of the children. Both individual and group counselling is administered. Cases of Dyslexia, Dyscalculia and slow learners are handled by a well-trained counsellor. Workshops for parents, teachers and children are held from time to time. Topics like effective parenting, inculcating discipline in children, handling of slow children are covered in these workshops.
Primary wing boasts of a big music room which has a large number of traditional and modern instruments. Children are trained in playing Casio, Tabla, Guitar, Harmonium etc. Various music and dance competitions are held from time to time.
Children learn to make clay models, photo frames, wall hangings, flower arrangements and rangoli. They are trained to use the best out of waste. A competent art teacher trains child to draw and colour. Children learn and enjoy spray painting, wax crayon painting, thumb printing, pencil drawing and landscaping etc.
It is an integral part of the school curriculum. Children are made to recite the Japji Sahib path every morning. They are encouraged to read and follow the teachings of great Sikh gurus. Our children participate in exams held by Sikh missionary college every year and do remarkably well and achieve high ranking.
Fun and frolic never stops as students visit a new play area laid with Astro Turf and most exciting playing equipment’s in their P.T periods. Their happiness knows no bound while playing on Merry-go -round, swings, slides, see-saw and climbers.
To provide a first-hand experience to the kids, school trips and excursions are organised from time to time. In the previous session, classes 1 to 3 had a thrilling adventure trip to Rock sport in LPU, Phagwara. While classes 4 and 5 observed the culture and traditions of Punjab closely at SadaPind, Amritsar.
